"This morning I ask God to relieve me from selfish thinking and actions. Please give me the strength to finish this week off by keeping my side of the street clean by being open and honest about my actions and making amends for any wrongs I commit along the way. This is one of the keys to live happy, joyous and free."

"One thing I learned about life is that neither fellowship nor friendship can lower the price of personal sacrifice. What I mean is that no one can water your dreams but you. No matter how many people hold your hands, you still must shed your tears. Others can cry with you, but they can't cry for you. That's the bad news. The good news is that there will be a harvest at the end of your tears." - TDJ

"It doesn't matter what the odds are on paper, what's happened before. It matters what happened that moment. There's a lot of times in practice, times before and after the fight, and when I get out there I just think, "You know what? The time's right now. You've got to make it happen right now. It can't be an hour ago. It can't be tomorrow. It can't be during practice. It has to be right now." - Holly Holm

"God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made when we have not taken Him into account. Suddenly we realize that we have been making our plans without Him--that we have not even considered Him to be a vital, living factor in the planning of our lives. And yet the only thing that will keep us from even the possibility of worrying is to bring God in as the greatest factor in all of our planning. Get into the habit of putting God first and planning with Him in mind." - Oswald Chambers

“God is moving through your life right now as you read this. Don’t get impatient waiting to see the result of Him moving; you need to remember that He moves in His time, not ours. While you wait, rejoice the good days and try to hang on to hope during the bad days.” - I hope you have an amazing day today my friends! – Elmer Laydon

"Something harder than waiting on God is wishing you had. We have to be careful. When we're frustrated, we can create our own solutions that end up making things much worse." - Steven Furtick

"Unresolved issues will just create new issues for you to deal with. The quicker you face them, the sooner you can break any negative cycles." - SL

“There are times that our suffering and sadness seem to overwhelm us and, no matter how hard we pray or ask God to ease our burden, we can feel alone and abandoned. Know that God does hear you and feels your pain and is working to bring you a brighter future. It is knowing He is working to bring that to you that gives hope; it is that hope that can lighten your load and make your current suffering more tolerable.” – Elmer Laydon

"Esau was stupid because he allowed himself to make a permanent decision over a temporary situation. And, I want to warn you against making permanent decisions over temporary situations because...this too shall pass. The enemy offers you a trick, but the trick is not that good when you consider that you're giving away your future...giving away the next thirty years for the next thirty minutes." - TDJ

"God sees your tears! God sees your circumstances! God sees your situation! God sees your faith and perseverance! WAIT ON HIM!" - TDJ

"The next time you think you can't make it, can't get over it, can't work with it, can't do without it, remember...but God."

“On the days that you feel forgotten and left behind, know that you are always in the forefront of God’s thoughts. Let this brighten your day and let no person try to take this away from you as no one can change your nature as a beloved child of God.” I hope you have a wonderful day today my friends! – Elmer Laydon

In real estate it’s all about, “Location! Location! Location!” In knowing God it’s all about, “Perspective! Perspective! Perspective!” When we trust God, we’re able to see Him working in our circumstances, because we finally see our lives from His perspective; and when we see life from God’s perspective, at last, we see God working in our lives. But all of this will take one word: trust, and precious few people trust God enough to believe that what He allows will work for their good. Most people spend their lives wishing something different were happening to them. Trust Jesus! Let Him guide every aspect of your life, and you’ll learn to love the life He’s given you. Why? Because He does! “...it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.” (Philippians 2:13) - Francis Anfuso
